Question:
I either dont have tonsils or they are really small?
my mom wanted to look at my throat to see if there was anything on it. when she realizes that she cannot find my tonsils. so either i was born without them or they are really small. is this bad? or can it cause any problems. i know people get their tonsils removed but being born without them is kinda weird...
Answers:
Tonsils are kind of hard to find, especially with an untrained eye. More than likely you have tonsils, don't worry. But if you are just really worried about it then go to the doctor, but don't waste the money, you are fine, you don't need them to live anyways. Usually the only time they are noticeable is if they are inflammed because you are sick. Ever felt like you can't swallow when you are sick? Its because they are inflammed. If they become inflammed more than 3 times in a year then they need to be removed. You have +4 tonsils, so you should feel good, if they were +1, blocking your airway then thats the time to start worrying.
